Is Audino Good in Legends: Z-A Playthrough?

Normal-type Audino from Hyperspace around level 20. Mega Audino changes the typing to Normal and Fairy and leans into the defensive profile. Not a damage dealer. Better suited as a team anchor that absorbs hits and keeps the team alive through sustained fights. Useful if you need bulk more than offense.

Held ItemAudinite adds Fairy typing with AbilityHealer and pushes defenses to a matching 126/126. 60 Sp. Atk means the moveset can't threaten anything offensively. The value is purely defensive and supportive, absorbing damage from both sides while Mega is active. 50 Speed keeps cooldowns slow.

STAB runs through Giga Impact and Hyper Beam for the basics, but Audino's real strength is the 11-type coverage spread. Fairy and Ice hit common defensive types, and the movepool keeps going.

Pokemon Legends: Z-A

Audino Legends: Z-A Guide

  • In Legends: Z-A, Don't let Audino's 445 base stat total fool you. Regenerator is what makes it tick. It punches way above its weight class. We rate it C-Tier. Wish with Leftovers is the standard set.

  • Mega Evolution isn't available in Legends: Z-A, but Audino does have a Mega form in Gen 6-7 games (X/Y, ORAS, Sun/Moon). Mega Audino hits 545 BST.

  • In Legends: Z-A, watch for Hitmonlee (Fighting) when using Audino. They all hit it super-effectively with STAB. Only 1 weakness means fewer dedicated counters to worry about.

  • In Legends: Z-A, Run Regenerator on Audino. It's the ability that defines how you build around it and the main reason it holds a competitive niche. Audino also gets Healer and Klutz, but they don't compare.

  • In Legends: Z-A, Audino fills the balanced role. It's a special attacker with base 60 Sp. Atk. Base 50 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. And it's enough bulk to take a hit or two.

Game Availability

Audino first appeared in Black & White and spans 8 games across 6 generations. It later gained a Mega form in Generation 6, adding new dimensions to its competitive identity.
